No offense, but seriously... following Russell on twitter is like... erm, walking behind a strange person to find out what does he do in his daily life? -_-

I recommend volunteer work instead.

No Joab, hehe... we were just accidentally saw his tweets while we're watching for a real "amazing-race" news, info, sightings, and stuff... and because there is such a tweet, makes me and other detectives (probably) look through it too... but thats it, no more, no following or anything

is this for real?!?! no way he is allowed to say he's going to be on the show... am i missing something here?

Browse Russell Hantz's twitter. The tweet is still there.

I guess he just wants to partake in the race with Dick. I don't think they've sent the application.

I think he just keeps saying he wants to go on the race to get CBS' attention to recruit him

We got a bingo! .. It is extremely unlikely that Russell would ever be on TAR. Certainly, he can hammer CBS/Lynne to be cast but the reality is he does not meet the qualifications of being on TAR. Evil Dick and him have no relationship that would interest TAR. It is primarily a relationship show that is the reason the BB had a couple entrants..they were legit couples....Do you know how many past survivors have approached TAR on getting on being cast...a ton...lol....But no reason not to do some self-promotion..I do it for myself all the time.

I don't really understand the hate the Russell, he was a bona fide star on Survivor and made great moves as well as doing well in challenges when he had to (won final immunity in both Samao and HvV). I suppose he is just one of those people that some love to hate but don't want to admit that.

However I can understand the annoyance that the rest of his family seem to get onto programs just because they are in his family, that's not down to Russell though it's because TV producers have wanted to do it. Russell though made a name for himself, he didn't get on programs because he was related to someone famous.

It isn't just about Russell anyway, on this show it's about who someone is teamed up with as well. The game is completely different. And I think he would be the best Survivor to have so far appeared on The Amazing Race. And I actually preferred Rob on this show to how he was on Survivor, others may feel the same way about Russell.
